Reliability Modelling

Reliability is an essential concept in mathematics, computing, research, and all disciplines of engineering. Reliability as a characteristic is, in fact, a probability. Therefore, in this book the author uses the statistical approach to reliability modelling along with the Minitab software package to provide a comprehensive treatment of modelling, from the basics through advanced modelling techniques. With nearly 100 diagrams, plots, and illustrations and an appendix covering the algebraic and calculus methods relevant to reliability analysis, this is the ideal text for researchers and engineers who need to consider the reliability implications of their work.
